Joel 1:12

The vine has dried up; the fig tree languishes – the pomegranate, date, and apple ¹  as well. In fact, ²  all the trees of the field have dried up. Indeed, the joy of the people ³  has dried up!

Nu 13:23; Ps 4:7; Ps 92:12; So 2:3; So 4:13; So 7:7-9; Isa 9:3; Isa 16:10; Isa 24:11; Jer 48:3; Ho 9:1,2; Joe 1:10; Joe 1:16; Hab 3:17,18

¹ tn This Hebrew word וְתַפּוּחַ (vÿtappuakh) probably refers to the apple tree (so most English versions), but other suggestions that scholars have offered include the apricot, citron, or quince.

² tn These words are not in the Hebrew text but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Heb “the sons of man.”
